The biggest movie of 2015 is finally available to buy on Blu-ray and DVD, and you can also buy the year’s best movie as a digital HD download. In addition to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the disc and download contains plenty of extra material, including a documentary, the cast’s table read of the script, and some of the deleted scenes that never made it into the final cut of last year’s Star Wars revival.

Some of these deleted scenes contain details that might be useful to the story while others are made of unnecessary fluff — and we’ll tell you everything you need to know right here.

Here at BGR, we love flamethrowers. We’re also big fans of Britons Gav and Dan (a.k.a., The Slow Mo Guys), who have made a name for themselves posting incredible 4K slow-motion videos of all kinds of crazy phenomena. So when I saw that the Slow Mo Guys put out a new video on Wednesday that dealt with flamethrowers, I could not click on it fast enough.

It really doesn’t get much better than this.

Over the past several years, I’ve had the opportunity to play around in virtual reality dozens of times. Whether it was a 360-degree movie on the Oculus Rift or an intense car chase on PlayStation VR, I was always entertained. But until I got my hands on an HTC Vive, I never realized that VR might actually be the next big thing.

We’ve told you about Sphero’s app-controlled BB-8 droid toy a few times now. Why? Because it’s awesome, that’s why. This little droid rolls around like magic and you control his every move from your iPhone or Android smartphone. We’ve seriously never had more fun playing with any remote-controlled device, and today we have two pieces of terrific news to share.

First of all, this nifty little droid is well worth its $150 price tag, but it’s on sale at Amazon right now for $129 with free express shipping courtesy of Amazon Prime.

Secondly, the timing of the sale couldn’t be more perfect,because the BB-8’s accompanying smartphone app just got a big update that lets the BB-8 watch Star Wars: The Force Awakens along with you and react to the movie while it watches!

Do you remember the mysterious dress where some people saw it as white and gold, while others saw it as blue and black? Well there’s a similarly puzzling image that’s making the rounds on the internet these days — a red dot that contains a hidden image that only some people can see.

Apple shocked fans with the iPhone SE’s low $399 price tag. For just $400 you get a compact phone that’s as powerful as the iPhone 6s and is superior to mid-range Android alternatives. The downside of buying this device is the limited storage that comes with the cheapest new iPhone. You still get just 16GB of memory to play with, which is a woefully small amount of storage in this day and age. However, there are ways of making the most of that limited storage without ever running out of space, which make the $399 iPhone SE a steal.

The biggest remaining mystery in Star Wars: The Force Awakens is the identity of Rey’s parents. However, there are still lots of smaller mysteries about the movie that have yet to be solved, such as how Luke’s lightsaber wound up with Maz Kanata. J.J. Abrams this week spilled the beans on another mystery that we’ve been wondering about for a while — namely, what’s the deal with the table of ashes where Kylo Ren keeps his helmet?

The answer, it turns out, is creepier than we expected. Also, beware that there are spoilers below if you still haven’t seen the movie.
